Oscar aghast at crime scene images

NEWSWATCH: The release of crime scene images into the public domain has stunned the Pistorius family, reports IOL. Meanwhile, Zapiro et al can rest easy after Jacob Zuma dropped defamation cases against the cartoonist and others, reports Mail & Guardian, and Sunday Times claims to have evidence that Communications Minister Dina Pule and Phosane Mngqibisa are "an item", reports ITWeb.

IOL: Oscar's family stunned by leaked photographs... Trust the Brits... The Sky News website in the UK posted crime scene images "purportedly showing the scene where model Reeva Steenkamp was shot dead" and the family is understandably "shaken", IOL reports.
The images were allegedly leaked to the media - very likely for a hefty fee, which makes one wonder whether SAPS will be able to track down the person or persons responsible and do the necessary.
Mail & Guardian: Zuma puts 'personal sentiments' aside to drop media cases... Zapiro and the many others targeted in Zuma's defamation campaign must be sleeping easy now after "Number One" decided to drop not one, not two, but all the cases he had lodged.
According to the Mail & Guardian, "'The president feels that measured against the broader nation[al] interest and challenges which the country is faced with, his personal sentiments, however aggrieved he may feel, must give way,' said presidential spokesperson Mac Maharaj in a statement on Friday."
That sounds very big of him, but could it not simply be that he saw the light and realised his chances of getting the millions he was claiming were somewhat slim?
ITWeb: Sunday Times claims proof of Pule's romance... According to the ITWeb report, the Sunday Times says it has documentary proof that "Dina Pule listed businessman Phosane Mngqibisa as her spouse in official departmental documents."
If the Sunday Times evidence is genuine, and its claims are found to be accurate, our minister and her man could find themselves in a spot of bother and in that paradoxical situation of being in hot water and on thin ice at one and the same time.
